But The Quest for Beauty is a Beast. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Back to Reality I stand on my pedestal, I watch everyone fall away, I want to jump in the pit of darkness with them, but I stand alone as the world crumbles beneath me. Cait slipped into another coma. She didn't eat in Mexico. When she came back she was in her bed and her body became paralyzed. Her parents rushed her to the ER. She had had a heart attack and was slipping into heart failure. She spent a week in the ICU, and then moved to the critical care unit, where she is now. She is having trouble controlling her bowels, and has permanent heart damage. Her parents are arranging for home hospice care. This is a tragedy beyond words. I cannot express my grievances towards this. Cait is a lovely girl, who was set to go to college in the fall. All dreams shattered, all hope lost, and it is known, by her words, she informs me: "I reached my lowest weight, 57 pounds." Anorexia is where reality is lost. 9:48 p.m. - 2003-08-29 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------- |
